Caravan & RV Servicing

Caravans and RVs place far greater demands on mechanical, electrical and cooling systems than standard vehicles — particularly when towing, travelling long distances or operating off-grid. At Total Mobile Mechanical Services, we provide comprehensive caravan and RV servicing, diagnostics, auto-electrical and mechanical support from our fully equipped Calliope workshop and storage yard, supporting customers across Gladstone, Tannum Sands, Benaraby and surrounding areas.

With a permanent workshop base and secure yard in Calliope, combined with mobile service capability, we are set up to handle everything from routine caravan servicing through to complex fault finding and touring-related issues. This allows us to support both local caravan owners and travellers passing through Central Queensland with reliable, practical solutions.

Caravan & RV Repairs, Auto Electrical, Mechanical & Touring Support

Workshop-Based Caravan Servicing & Secure Yard – Calliope

Unlike many mobile-only operators, we operate from a fully equipped mechanical and auto-electrical workshop in Calliope, complete with a secure storage yard. This allows us to take on larger, more involved caravan and RV jobs that require time, equipment and space to be done properly.

Our Calliope facility enables:

Workshop-based caravan servicing and diagnostics
Electrical and mechanical repairs requiring extended testing
Secure short-term storage during repairs or fault investigation
Support for touring vehicles that cannot be repaired roadside

This setup gives caravan owners confidence that work is carried out thoroughly, not rushed or compromised.

Caravan Auto Electrical, 12V & Power Systems

Modern caravans rely heavily on integrated electrical systems that must function reliably under load, heat and vibration. We specialise in diagnosing and repairing caravan auto-electrical and 12V systems, including:

Caravan 12V wiring and circuit faults
Battery charging and power distribution issues
DC-DC chargers and charging performance problems
Solar panels, regulators and system faults
Lithium, AGM and deep-cycle battery systems
Inverters and power management systems
Anderson plug installations and repairs
Tow-vehicle to caravan charging integration
Voltage drop, load-related failures and intermittent faults

We focus on correct fault diagnosis, ensuring systems work as intended in real touring conditions — not just on the day of repair.

Caravan Solar & Off-Grid Touring Systems

Off-grid travel places heavy reliance on solar and battery systems. Incorrect setup or component failure can quickly leave caravans without usable power. We assist with:

Caravan solar systems not charging correctly
Regulator and inverter faults
Battery management and charging optimisation
Charging issues while towing
Power reliability for extended off-grid travel

Our experience with real-world touring setups allows us to identify weak points and improve system reliability before they become trip-ending problems.

Mechanical Servicing, Inspections & Towing-Related Issues

Caravan mechanical issues often show up under load or over distance. We provide practical mechanical servicing and inspections to help prevent failures and improve towing safety.

This includes:

Pre-trip caravan and towing inspections
Suspension and running-gear checks
Brake inspections and adjustments (where applicable)
Bearing inspections and servicing
Mechanical fault diagnosis affecting towing stability
Preventative maintenance recommendations

These services are especially valuable for customers travelling between Calliope, Gladstone, Tannum Sands and regional areas.

Caravan Air Conditioning & Cooling Systems

Air conditioning and cooling systems are critical for comfort and electrical stability, particularly in Central Queensland conditions. We assist with:

Caravan air-conditioning diagnostics
Electrical faults affecting A/C operation
Cooling systems not starting or tripping
Power supply and load issues impacting air conditioning
Preventative checks before long trips

Proper diagnosis helps avoid repeat failures and protects both electrical and cooling components.

Advanced Diagnostics & Fault Finding

Caravan and RV faults are often complex, involving multiple systems interacting at once. We specialise in diagnosing problems that are not immediately obvious, including:

Intermittent electrical faults
Charging issues while towing
Power loss under load
Accessory and control system faults
Touring-related reliability problems

Our diagnostic-first approach saves time, reduces unnecessary parts replacement and leads to more reliable long-term outcomes.

Mobile Support Across Gladstone, Tannum Sands & Benaraby

While our workshop and storage yard are based in Calliope, we also provide mobile assistance across Gladstone, Tannum Sands, Benaraby and surrounding areas where appropriate.

This allows us to assist with:

On-site diagnostics
Electrical and mechanical fault finding
Urgent repairs to keep travellers moving
Advice to safely continue travel if immediate workshop repair isn’t possible

When required, vehicles or caravans can be brought back to our Calliope workshop for further work.
